In secret, behind locked gates, our Nation's Oldest City dumped a landfill in a lake (Old City Reservoir), while emitting sewage in our rivers and salt marsh. Organized citizens exposed and defeated pollution, racism and cronyism. We elected a new Mayor. We're transforming our City -- advanced citizenship. Ask questions. Make disclosures. Demand answers. Be involved. Expect democracy. Report and expose corruption. Smile! Help enact a St. Augustine National Park and Seashore. We shall overcome!

Another Developer PUD Extension? SEBASTIAN INLAND HARBOR PROJECT ON May 23, 2016 Docket for CIty Commission
Why 10 years? Because overbearing corporations attorneys demand it? Not a good reason.
The project was once supposed to include a Westin Hotel. Or so the project's then-lawyer, the late GEORGE MORRIS McCLURE falsely claimed, enabled and empowered by Mayor JOSEPH LESTER BOLES, JR. Mayor BOLES acted like he was in on every shady deal in St. Augustine, never questioned a word GEORGE McCLURE and ROGERS TOWERS clients like ROBERT MICHAEL GRAUBARD said, and acted like he was chief clerk at a country store, giving away the store.
Now we have Mayor Nancy Shaver, who has a brain, a conscience and the best interest of our City at heart, and knows how to read a business plan, do math in her head, ask questions and demand answers.
This place is going to be Beautiful. It is about time the Nations Oldest and Direst City starts to Class up a bit !
